impact fuze, type UTI-1. Purpose of this rocket is
destruction of air targets at the altitudes up to 30.000 m it
is the modern aircraft amament.
BR-1-57 rocket with the UTI-1 fuze can also be used for
the ground targets destruction ( aircraft, cars,
warehouses and similar military objects).
BR -1 -57 rocket with the fuze UTI-1 is fired from the
tube launchers (with rear part opened) , which are placed
in the honeycomb launchers L-57.

Aircraft Rocket cal.57 mm BR-20-57 P1


General

In addition to the aircraft rockets BR-1-57 mm and


BR-2-57 mm manufactured to date, Krusik has
developed the production of a new service rocket, named
the Universal BR-20-57 P1, and corresponding practice
rocket.
BR-20-57 P1 nun rocket is a rocket of a combined hol
low-charge and fragmentation effect, so that it
incorporates the application of the rocket BR-1-57 mm,
which means that a single rocket type can be
employed in different fighting missions. The arming so far
has to be performed with a specific type of rockets
(either hollow -charge or high -explosive), depending on
a particular combat action, which
Is now no longer necessary , owing to the new
universal-employment rocket . This practically provides
multiple employment advantages.

Technical characteristics

The aircraft rocket of a hollow -charge and


fragmentation effect BR-20-57 P1 is a system of Cal.57
mm unguided air-to-ground and air- to-air rockets and is
used for mass arming of aircrafts . The rocket includes
a warhead with hollow charge and fragmentation effect
and impact type UTI-2 fuze and superquick - inertial
action . The rockets are used to annihilate air targets
at altitudes of up to 30.000 m , for assault actions
against mobile and stationary armoured targets such
as tanks , armoured vehicles , carriers , light weapon
and vehicles , aircrafts on the ground and personnel
around the stated combat means.

Tehnical data

Rocket mass: 4.5 kg


Explosive charge mass: 0.32 kg
Propellant mass: 1.13 kg
Penetration: 160-200 m
Quantity of fragments on burst: 200 pcs
Killing range: 18-20 m (40 m circle)
Muzzle safety: 110
Packing of 8 rockets per wooden case
Special air-tight packaging for the fuze
Warranty period: 5 years

BR-1-57 V, BR-2-57 V and BR-20-57 V Practice


Rockets

The Practice rockets BR-1-57 V, BR-2-57 V and


BR-20-57 V are used for training of pilots when
firing 57 mm caliber rockets.
The warhead and the fuze are inert (made of metal).
Its mass, centre of gravity and shape are matched
to live rockets, so that its ballistic trajectories are
identical to those of the service rockets.
Packing of 12 rockets per wooden case with the
total mass of packing amounting to 67 kg.
Warranty period is 5 years.
